Restoring an object after dbDeleteObject

acook

Is it possible to save an object before I run dbDeleteObject so that it can be restored. I am working on a script where I may want to restore an instance I deleted.

Is the only way to do this brute force by saving all of the instances properties?

Example code:

inst = car( cvid->instances); Get my instance

backupInst = inst

dbDeleteObject(inst); delete inst

Both inst->?? and backupInst return:

     -> dbGetq: object is a purged/freed object - db:0x2057b31b

What I want to do next:

dbCreateObject(backupInst); A function that doesn't exist.....

    If you don't have a dbSave in your script, you should be able to do an undo and get the inst/objects back.

     

    If you are wanting specific inst/objects, you are going to have to write to a file or create a variable to hold the deleted inst/object value.
